Ingredients

• 1 lime or lemon (lime is better)

• Sugar to taste. Castor sugar dissolves faster. Sugar free sweetener can be substituted for diabetics.

• 1 1/2 glasses cold water placed in a jug

• Crushed ice

• Slice of lemon for each glass.

• Optional

• You can add a little Chat Masala or a little black salt on it's own to get a sweet and savoury drink. Salt and sugar together help to replace the lost electrolytes in the intense heat of India.

5. You can add a couple of lightly crushed mint leaves also to the glass before pouring the drink in.
